It just occurred to me that I never mentioned the disclaimer. Guess what? I OWN NOTHING!!! Oh well.


Weeks passed since Sara's attack, but something was persistently bothering her about the two men involved, particularly the one that had saved her. What had he meant we had a deal? What deal? And was it mere coincidence that he shared the same first name as her supervisor? Unless you can finally accept what you are? What the hell did that even mean? Vampires had begun to reappear in her mind. 'Grissom? A vampire? HA!'

"You okay Sara?" She spun around to find Nick with a worried expression on his face.

"Fine. Why'd you ask?"

"You're mumbling and giggling to yourself at a crime scene." 'Crap, I was doing that out loud?'

"Don't worry about it. It's subconscious."

"Like your singing?"

"Shut up Nick."

Leave her alone!

Watch and learn Gilbert

She's just a kid Terrance, she's done nothing wrong

You're wrong. You, her, mom, dad. You pushed me to this

She's your sister!

Not anymore! Sharp fangs tor into the child's neck

DANIKA!


A hand landed sharply on Grissom's shoulder, causing him to almost fall from his chair.

"Settle down buddy. It's just me."

"Damn it Jim, you could have given me a heart attack." Brass chuckled as he settled into the opposing lazy boy.

"You're technically dead so a heart attack is impossible. Somethings bothering you."

"I don't think think Terrance attacked Sara randomly."

"I thought we were passed this."

"I'm never gonna be passed this."

"This isn't about Terrance or Sara. This is about Danika." Grissom jumped up and began pacing.

"He made a promise and then he deliberately broke it."

"Over a hundred years ago!"

"I witnessed it happen Jim, It's not like there's a delete button in my head that I can press when something bad happens."

"She was a four year kid, why is this even bothering you!"

"SHE WAS MY SISTER!" Brass stared in disbelief at his oldest friend. How could this not have come up before. "Dad was turned before mom conceived her. She was a half-breed, mom died and Danika was forever a four year old. I was fifteen and hiding a massive secret. My sister eventually became my 'daughter'. I didn't know Terrance had been turned until the night he killed Danika. Three days later I met you."

"Jesus Gil, why didn't you tell me?"

"It was none of your business. The night you saved me, I was trying to escape the nightmares."

"You were trying to commit suicide." This wasnt a question this time. All he could do was nod.

"I tried after you changed me as well. Kind of hard when you're technically already dead." Grissom sighed heavily. "Lock up will you? I have to go to work."

"Mr Grissom, you have a visitor. Mr Grissom, a visitor."

"Get the hell out of here Terry."

"No wonder you don't have a girlfriend, your bed side manner sucks."

"Don't make me tell you again." Terrance raised his hands in defense.

"Alright bro, I'm gone. Danika would be disappointed though." Grissom grabbed his jacket and threw him against the wall.

"Leave her out of this you bastard."

"Hey, ease up a little Gil. I was just screwing around."

"Yeah, well I'm not laughing."

"What seems to be the problem gentlemen?" Brass casually intervened, as if were normal for Grissom to start a fight. His grip slowly eased, Terrance finding his feet easily.

"Stay the hell away from me." With a lop-sided grin he disappeared from the crime lab.

I know, this isn't as awesome as other chapters and there is very little about Sara figuring it out but I am trying.
